Personality
Adam's name is enormously significant, as it
is the name of the first man in the Bible. The
hugely symbolic and essentially esoteric
nature of the Bible is revealed when we begin
to analyse this name. Its value is 45, which
tells us that while Adam is very much a
materialist and of the earth he has the
capacity for considerable enlightenment. The
number four represents the four elements and
the earth bound side of Adam's nature. The
number five on the other hand relates to the
state of man when the fifth element of spirit
is added, hence the occult significance of the
pentagram in magical lore. At a more mystical
level the number five relates to the
pentagrammaton; YHShVH which is the Hebrew
spelling of Jesus, as discussed in Part One of
this book. This symbolically suggests the
purely human nature of the teacher from
Nazareth.

Love
You could never be bored in a relationship
with Adam, his enthusiasm for life is highly
infectious and he is always full of
suggestions for new interests and activities
to pursue. Adam does like to be in charge
though. If you are in a relationship with an
Adam and you are unwilling to allow him to
take the lead especially in terms of money
related issues you may have a certain amount
of friction to deal with.

Career
We should expect Adam to very well for himself
financially thanks to this strong connection
to the world of matter. At the same time it is
very rare to find an Adam who is greedy or
selfish I his dealings with others because of
the latent power of the spirit within his
personality. In later life Adam may well go on
to explore his spiritual side more seriously.
The compression of Adam's numerical value
gives us the letter Teth meaning
"serpent", which has obvious
connotations in terms of the Eden story. For
Adam himself this is a very positive
association as it indicates a level of
determination and courage in life. This is
strengthened by the connection to the Force
card from the Tarot. Adam is full of energy
and at times this can cause fireworks as he
has the potential to unleash his fiery temper
on those who needlessly obstruct him.

BETH
- tb - BTh

Tarot
Card: The Hierophant Zodiac sign: Taurus
Value:402

Personality
There is a good chance that this is exactly
the type of book that would appeal to Beth.
Her associated Tarot card is the Hierophant,
which is sometimes referred to as the Pope or
Priest card. It indicates a concern with and
an interest in matters of a spiritual nature,
specifically the more esoteric and mysterious
side of spirituality. The sign of Taurus is
also important to this name and this acts as a
balancing force to the energy of the
Hierophant. The sign of Taurus is an Earth
sign and this tells us that Beth has her feet
firmly on the ground and doesn't let her
interests cloud her common sense.

Love
In relationships Beth can be a little slow in
verbally expressing her feelings but she is
unusually tactile and will show her affection
in a myriad of interesting ways! Never one for
short-term affairs Beth looks for solid
commitment in a partner. If you haven't been
hugged for a while then the chances are that
you have been falling down on your side of the
partnership - Beth needs approval and lots of
it.

Career
Beth is a very practical woman and is at home
in a workshop or the local DIY store. She also
has an extremely sensual nature and enjoys
decorating her home in a rich and inviting
manner. The concern with domestic life and the
home is also indicated in her name, which
means "house". A confirmed
individual Beth is always willing to stand her
ground in a debate and would make a good
negotiator. She may well run her own business,
and is likely to be drawn to the area of home
improvements or design.

BRIAN
- N)yrb - BRYAN

Tarot
Card: Fortune Zodiac sign: Scorpio Value: 263

Personality
Everyone relies on Brian, he is always willing
to shoulder that extra burden for you and will
run the extra mile into the bargain. Brian's
association with the Hanged Man card of the
Tarot indicates his willingness to sacrifice
his own interests for the sake of others. The
initial letter Beth which means
"house" in Hebrew suggests that
Brian's altruistic nature is likely to relate
to his close family. On the surface Brian is a
cheerful enough chap, the central pairing of
the letters Resh and Yod point to an energised
and sunny disposition. However, the
associations of this name with Scorpio tell us
that he has a secret and potentially
melancholic side to his nature.

Love
In relationships Brian is very likely to marry
at a relatively young age. If you are married
to a Brian you may well have a sense of how
lucky you are. He is a deeply emotional
individual and the combination of the letters
Aleph and Nun tell us that he is by nature and
extremely loyal partner.

Career
Career wise Brian will do very well in any one
of the caring professions, particularly
working with older people. As a recognisably
safe pair of hands he may well find himself in
a management role. He needs to control his
willingness to listen to everyone's troubles
or he will find himself drowning in a sea of
paperwork. On the whole Brian is sensible when
it comes to money, but is a sucker for a good
cause and should be kept away from charity
tins when he is in an especially good mood.

JASON
- Nwsy)y-YAYSVN

Tarot
Card: The Fool Zodiac sign: Sagittarius
Value:787/ 127

Personality
Interestingly the value of Jason's name
reduces to twenty-two, the number of the Fool
in the Tarot, which symbolises innocence,
enthusiasm and naiveté. In Jason's case we
should see this symbol as in its position at
the end rather than the beginning of the Tarot
cycle, where it symbolises the enlightened
position of the so-called 'Wise fool'. Jason
has a very physical side to his personality
and should be involved in some form of
sporting activity in order to burn up the
enormous amounts of energy he possesses. If he
decides to lead a sedentary lifestyle he will
find himself becoming increasingly irritable
in nature as time goes on. The central
presence of the letter Samech in his name
tells us that Jason can be extremely
supportive. In the context of his leisure
time, this indicates that he should ideally
get involved in a sport such as football or
cricket where he will prove to be an
invaluable member of the team.

Love
In particular the naivety of the Fool relates
to his relationships, where Jason has a
touching faith in the feelings of his partner,
which in itself can be decidedly charming and
attractive. As a wise fool Jason knows that as
much as he is quite capable of unconditional
love, he may not find the right person
straight away. His innate wisdom means that he
will let go of someone if they wish to break
up without the usual attendant recriminations
and disharmony. This is of enormous benefit to
Jason and will ensure that a mistake in love
will not hold him back from moving on and
enjoying life to the full.

Career
Jason is a well-liked chap, mainly because he
is totally up front; there are no hidden
agendas with Jason. If Jason likes you as a
friend but also finds you a useful person to
know in terms of his business he will tell you
so. In fact Jason is so straight with people
he may even tell them when they are useful but
not really friends! The power of Leo is
prevalent in his name, which assures him a
good level of success in his life while
indicating a forceful and charismatic
personality.

OLIVER
- hwyl( - A'ALYVH

Tarot
Card: The Empress Zodiac Sign: Aquarius Value:
121

Personality
You are not likely to see Oliver down at the
local health club, he is far more happy
sitting at home with a good book or sitting in
front of his computer struggling with some
intractable logic puzzle. This name is
absolutely full of Air energy, and the element
of Air relates to all aspects of the mind.
Oliver is very content with his lot, he may
not be able to move heavy furniture around the
house, but he probably earns enough to be able
pay someone else to that sort of thing for
him!

Love
While he has a great brain Oliver is not one
for living in relative poverty as an
altruistic academic. The value of his name
reduces to four, which indicates a definite
concern with the material side of life, which
suggests a love of the sensual. In addition
the influence of the sign Capricorn tells us
that here we have a man who likes his
luxuries. The full total of his name is 121,
and the fact that his name's value begins and
ends with a one shows his confirmed
independence. It is this independent streak
that may lead Oliver to avoid close personal
relationships. However, he would do well to
remember that a luxurious lifestyle is even
more satisfying when it is shared.

Career
The initial letter in Oliver's name is Ayin,
which means, "eye" in Hebrew. In the
context of the other forces in his name which
point to a high level of intellectual ability
this association probably suggests a very
observant nature when it comes to verbal
detail. Oliver would make an excellent lawyer
or legislator. This letter is also an
indicator of enormous will and individuality.
It points to someone who is capable of making
up their own mind about any issue without
being remotely influenced by mainstream
opinions. This makes Oliver a very interesting
person to know.
